" What did he just say?" Michael mumbled under his breath as he and Randy's eyes snapped to each other.

Randy blurted over the music that began to play.
" What did he just say?"

Michael stood from the table then to get the full view, no glass interfering.

At first, he thought it was just a coincidence, but the sight of Valentina and Alyssa making their way on stage made it clear that it wasn't.

" Turn the beat around
Love to hear percussion." they sang.

Delilah took a deep breath as she sensed her cue approaching — but like before she couldn't back down now so with a short prayer she revealed herself to the crowd.

" Blow horns you sure sound pretty
Your violins keep movin' to the nitty gritty
When you hear the scratch of the guitar scratchin
Then you'll know that rhythm carries all the action, oh oh."

Michael was stunned as he watched her and the crowds reactions to her moves and tune.

" Man Mike you ain't say that girl could blow like that." Randy snapped along to the song.

Michael gave him a rushed dismissive wave before he felt Bobby's hand on his shoulder. " I think we just might have our winner don't you think?" he spoke over the music, but Michael still focused on her glow.

That day at church Delilah thought nothing could beat it. Evidently she underestimated the feelings that came with her passion.

"Flute player play your flute 'cause
I know that you want to get your thing off
But you see I've made up my mind about it
got to be the rhythm, no doubt about it, woah, woah
'Cause when the guitar player starts playing
With the syncopated rhythm, with the scratch, scratch, scratch
Makes me want to move my body yeah, yeah, yeah." She rolled her hips.

"And when the drummer starts beating that beat
He nails that beat with the syncopated rhythm
With the rat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, on the drums, hey."

She smiled as she sang and observed the dancing crowd. She continued to rotate her hips in a circle along with her arms and body, her head turning randomly smiling at Raheem until she noticed Keisha beside him causing Delilah to give her a teasing wink.

Keisha stormed away then as the crowd went wild, the men specifically due to the way Delilah's hips moved in the skin-tight suit.

Keisha may have stole the song, but didn't steal her shine for Hugo's choreography went along with the music just fine...in fact it went along even better.

The break down gave her the chance to wow the crowd completely. She smirked and did exactly what Hugo told her to do, it surprised her that her balance was so perfect even when she landed her double Pirouette causing the audience to gasp and cheer.
